Like the Cretans who have been using olive oil for thousands of years, I have always massaged and nourished my daughters' hair with Castile-style olive oil .
A ritual that is reminiscent of the care of Egyptian queens, including Cleopatra , who had a real passion for oil baths and natural beauty rituals.
This is why we created the Cleopatra Ritual Pack , available in my store: a unique experience that combines tradition, care and pleasure, to enhance your hair naturally.
Why is olive oil a treasure for hair?
Olive oil is not just a cooking ingredient: it is a complete treatment.
Rich in fatty acids, vitamin E and antioxidants , it nourishes, protects and enhances the hair.
🌿 Protection against hair damage
A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Science showed that oils rich in fatty acids penetrate the hair fiber and reduce breakage. Olive oil, thanks to its oleic acid , helps limit protein loss in the hair ( Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2003 ).
👉 Result: stronger, less brittle hair.
✨ A shield against oxidation
Free radicals, produced by pollution and the sun, damage our hair and accelerate its aging.
Olive oil is rich in vitamin E and polyphenols , two powerful antioxidants that protect the hair fiber and scalp ( Molecules, 2010 ).
👉 Result: hair protected from external aggressions.
💧 Deep hydration
Researchers have confirmed that natural oils create a protective barrier that prevents water loss from the hair and scalp ( International Journal of Trichology, 2015 ).
👉 Result: soft, supple, frizz-free hair.
My family ritual with Castile-style olive oil
Since they were children, I have been applying this simple ritual to my daughters' hair:
-
Scalp massage
A small amount of warm oil massaged gently to stimulate circulation. -
Protective oil bath
I apply the oil along the entire length and leave it on overnight. -
Nourishing braid
I style their hair so the oil works without disturbing their sleep. -
Gentle wash
The next day, a simple natural shampoo is enough to reveal shiny and silky hair.
👉 Result? Long, strong, and beautiful hair, just like in ancient stories.
Cleopatra's Ritual Pack ✨
I wanted this ritual to be accessible to all women.
This is how the Cleopatra Ritual Pack was born: an exclusive selection based on Castile-style olive oil , to restore the strength and natural shine of hair.
A pack inspired by Mediterranean treatments and ancestral beauty rituals, designed to make every woman feel like a queen.
👉 A moment of natural luxury, without chemicals, to share alone or with family.
